AT&T to kick off pre-orders for the Galaxy Tab E 8.0 on May 6

AT&T has announced that it will kick off pre-orders for Samsung’s latest budget-friendly tablet, the Galaxy Tab E 8.0, starting Friday, May 6. The slate will be available to purchase in either Smoky Titanium or Frost White for a mere $10 per month on the carrier’s two-year installment plan.

For those in need of a refresher, the Galaxy Tab E 8.0 packs an 8-inch TFT display with a resolution of 800 x 1280 pixels, a 1.3GHz Snapdragon 410 quad-core processor, an Adreno 306 GPU, 1.5GB of RAM, a 5MP rear-facing camera and a 5,000mAh battery.

Unfortunately, the operator failed to provide an up-front price for the device. However, we expect it to cost somewhere in the region of $190-$230, which isn’t bad going for a portable tablet with AT&T’s private-owned DIRECTV software pre-installed.
